A , .7- -., o1 saluting?- a Part II. The first thing we noticed when we came back as Sophomores in 19:22 was that we had lost many of 0111' original number. Nevertheless, we got much pleasure from watching the new girls and Hseeing ourselves as others had seen 118.7, Our first business that fall was to elect our sophomore 0f- fieers. Mix Thomas Clark was elected president; Mr. G. Honglnnd. Vice President; Mr. A. H. Porter, Secretary and Mr. H. 'W. Harrison, Treasurer. Under the guidance of our president, we began our preparation for the Sophomore Soiree. It. ranked as the best social event among the student body. Our boys are highly praised for their athletic ability; and our girls were stars in basketball. 'We were very glad to have two members of our class feature in the Oratorieal Contest, in which they proved their mental ability, being able to cope equally with any of their opponents. Part III. Our duty this fall was to elect our class officers. Mr. William P. Boy- kins was President; Mr, Thomas Clark, Vice President; Mr. Bronghton Jones, Secretary and Mr. H. NV. Harrison, Treasurer. As, a class we were active and enthusiastic in our Juniority. Our scholarship ranked high. 0111' unselfishness and modernized aim had been sent to all parts of the state. PaTt IV. As we stepped from the ranks of Juniorhood t0 the dignified plains of Seniorship, we realized that we were nearing the goal for which we had so diligently fought. Realizing that there was much to be done, Our class officers were elected: Mr. XVilliani Boykins, President, Mr. Guy Hoffman, Vice President; Mr. Thomas Clark, Secretary and Mr. Bronghton Jones, Treasurer. Getting ready for tlThe Radiol, became our chief activity dur- ing the Second Quarter. Three of our members held important. parts 011 the staff and all Of us were deeply interested in the project. In the Third Quarter the underclassmen were startled to see us wear- ing our caps and gowns all day. Another thought that was uppermost in the minds of all the Juniors throughout the year was HHow will I look in my cap and gowniw NVe have given you here our history in brief from September, 1921 to June, 1925. We have had joys and have had sorrows; there have been lmth smiles and tears; but we have been happy. We are taking away with us possessions which we deem priceless. We have formed friendships which will last forever. And may the motto which has inspired and guided us safely through these years pilot us through life, uClimb though the rocks be rugged Page twenty-five

For this purpose we met and elected our first oth'cers. Miss J. L. Rowan, President; Mr. A. H. Porter, Secretary and Mr. II. XV. Harrison, Treasurer.
